B. attention must be directed to the improvement of recreative possibilities. C. the urban environment is providing more recreation activities than it did many years ago. D. priority must be given to the development of obligatory activities. (分析:B、D两项中均有must be,语气太绝对化,故一般被排除。考生结合短文内容在剩下两项中进行选择,命中率就极高了。)
二)选项中含有不十分肯定的语气词一般是正确答案项。这些语气词有: can, could, may, should, usually, might, most(大多数),more or less, relatively, be likely to, possible, whether or, not necessarily 等。 例(1) It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes _____ .(1999年6月 A. Americans are more ambitious than people in other countries B. in many countries success often depends on one's social status C. American businesses are more democratic than those in other countries D. businesses in other countries are not as competitive as those in America (分析:选项B中often 一词,语气委婉,不十分肯定,故为答案。而其它三项中所表达出的语气都明显绝对化。)

A. society can't provide enough jobs for properly trained college graduates B. high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college education? C. too many students have to earn their own living D. college administrators encourage students to drop out (分析:答案项C中有have to, 语气太绝对化,故被排除。而A项中can't 的语气则不十分绝对化,故为答案。)
(三)选项中照抄原文的一般不是答案项,而同义替换的一般是选项。 例(1) According to Dr. David, Americans _____ .(1993年6月) A. are ideally vigorous even under the pressure of life B. often neglect the unsequences of sleep deficit C. do not know how to relax themselves properly D. can get by on 6.5 hours of sleep (分析:答案项中A、D两项基本上是原文中句子的原现,故被排除。B项中有often 一词,语气委婉,不十肯定,故为答案。)

Some day it will be difficult to tell a computer from a man C. The reasoning power of computers has already surpassed that of man D. Future intelligent life may not necessarily be made of organic matter. (分析:A项句子基本上是原文词句,C项中有already一词,语气太绝对化,故A、C两项被排除。剩下B、D两项,而D项中有不十分肯定语气词may not,故选D。)
例(2) The first paragraph is mainly about _____ . (1991年 A. the teenagers' criticism of their parents B. misunderstandings between teenagers and their parents C. the dominance of the parents over their children D. the teenagers' ability to deal with crisis (分析:短文意思是讲年青人有时批评、责备其父母,认为父母对他们间误解负大部分责任是自然的事。而B项意思是年青人和父母间的误解;C项意思是父母对他们孩子的统治;D项指年轻人处理危机的能力。根据短文内容,可以明确看出,B、C、D三项内容都是从三个方面来论述短文观点的,而A项则较全面地、有针对性地表达了文章的中心意思,故为答案。)
(五)选项中表达意义较具体的、肤浅的(字面意思)一般不是答案项,而概括性的、抽象的、含义深刻的是答案项。 例(1) The population in the 21st century _____ , according to the writer . A. will be smaller than a few years ago B. will not be as small as people expect C. will prove to be a threat to the world D. will not constitute as serious a problem as expected (分析:选项A、B中都有small一词,该词在文中出现过,因而总觉肤浅,是字面之意。C项明显与文章不符,而D项表达的意义比small要深刻得多。)
例(2) From the passage it can be seen that employeeship helps one . (1990年1月) A. to be more successful in his career B. to solve technical problems C. to be more specialized in his field D. to develop his professional skill (分析:题意是"从文中看出员工素质有助于人们 ...。" B项题即"解决技术问题";C项意即"深化专业";D项"发展职业技能"。这三项表达的意思都比较具体,而A项则概括地有深度,包括了B、C、D三项内容。)
(六)选项中较符合常识的,易明白的一般不是选项;而似乎不太合理,一时较难理解的往往是正确选项。 例(1) Advertising can persuade the consumer to buy worthless products by _____ .(1999年1月) A. stressing their high quality B. unlinking him of their low price C. maintaining a balance between quality and price D. appealing to his buying motives (分析:题干问的是"广告会通过什么办法能劝说顾客买那些没用的产品?"A项意思是通过强调质量,B项意思是使顾客意识到其产品价格低,C项意思是既考虑到质量又考虑到价格。这三项所表达的意思都是我们在看广告时能感受到的,生活中天天见到。故这样的选项一般不是答案。而D项意思是迎合了顾客购物心理,乍一看还不太明白,不好理解。而这样的选项往往是正确答案。)
第二篇: 各类题型干扰项特点 新闻记者理解题一般采用主旨大意题、事实细节题、判断词汇题、逻辑推理题、作者观点态度题五种形式。考生若掌握了这些题型干扰项的特点,也有助于帮助自己排除干扰项,做出正确地选择。 (一)主旨大意题干扰项特点。 (1)虽覆盖全文意思,但显得太笼统; (2)其内容太窄,不能覆盖全文内容,只是文章内容的一部分,或只是文章内容的一个细枝未节; (3)与文章内容毫不相干,或与文章内容相悖。 例(1) The author write this passage to _____ .(1995年6月) A. discuss the negative aspects of being attractive B. give advice to job-seekers who are attractive C. demand equal rights for woman D. emphasize the importance of appearance (分析:文章中心意思是讲漂亮对女性的不利影响(But in the executive circle, beauty can become a liability.)但B项表达的意思偏离了主题(不是提供建议),且不是对所有外貌有魁力的人而言的;C项内容太笼统,太宽,不是讲女权平等;D项内容与文章主旨相反。故选A项。)
